Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Translation of complex German or English source texts from the fields of engineering and natural sciences for expert readers.

Assessment and permitted materials

Presentation, contributions to discussions in class, 2 written exams (mid-term, end-of-term tests). Use of resources is allowed in the written exams.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Practice-oriented development of translation strategies and research skills

Examination topics

In class, we will discuss the translations prepared by students. Students will register for one presentation date and prepare the other texts of the semester in such a way that they will be able to suggest alternatives. The source texts will be available on Moodle about one week ahead of the presentation and translations have to be handed in via Moodle no later than the Saturday preceding the presentation, 12 noon.
